I'm a systems and networks administrator as well as doing development and testing on various projects. My main interests are network-related tools such as NetworkManager, resolvconf, and the like, and desktop and server packages.
I currently work for Canonical as a member of the Canonical Phonedations Team, and maintain parts of the networking stack, such as NetworkManager, wpasupplicant, oFono, bluetooth...
I'm from Montreal, and I'm very active in the Ubuntu Quebec LoCo, and organize the Longueuil Ubuntu Hour. If you go to Linux or Ubuntu events around Montreal, you may be able to spot me.

Community Contributions

I'm very active in the Ubuntu-QC team. There are lots of challenges (people geographically dispersed, not always willing to travel...), but also a lot of interest.

Future Plans

(medium term) Eventually become a Debian Developer.

(long term) Sit for a term on the Developer Membership Board.

Testimonials for Membership Application

I'm glad Mathieu has finally applied for membership! I met Mathieu through a mutual friend and he's helped me out when I needed to find people to help with Ubuntu EC2 testing as well as being a great "sysadmin who can test/verify/fix bugs" for a bunch of random bugs I needed help with over the past few cycles. Matthieu knows not only how to work with existing ubuntu developers but also upstreams and Debian. I think membership will be a good first step and encourage him to keep going and become an Ubuntu developer! -- jorge 2009-10-22 21:30:46

What can I say, Mathieu is a fantastic member of the community ! He's quite active on Quebec's IRC channel and other Ubuntu channels, the mailing list and in events. He helped a lot in our two last major events (Global Jam and Release Party) and he keeps showing up in some annoying bugs He's great at showing off Ubuntu to new users and answering questions too. So, a big YEAH for me regarding membership -- -- magicfab 2009-11-11 16:21:09
